Energy expenditure was measured in 55 patients with acute pancreatitis, during variable periods ranging from 1 to 5 weeks and it was compared with estimated energy expenditure according to Harris Benedict equations. Patients with severe pancreatitis had similar measured and measured/estimated energy expenditure rations, compared to those with mild pancreatitis (1678 +/- 349.6 kcal/day and 1.1 +/- 0.19 vs 1632 +/- 383 kcal/day and 1.06 +/- 0.19). There was a high dispersion of measured/estimated rations (0.67 - 1.7) that precluded the calculation of a reliable energy expenditure correction factor for this disease. It is concluded that energy expenditure must be measured and not estimated, when planning an adequate nutritional support in patients with acute pancreatitis.
